Insights

Routine dividend declaration; neutral impact.

OpenText declared a cash dividend of $0.2750 per share with a record date of December 5, 2025 and payment on December 19, 2025. This indicates ongoing capital returns, but the excerpt does not provide earnings metrics to assess coverage or payout sustainability.

The filing states future dividends are at the Board’s discretion and subject to financial factors and contractual limits under existing credit agreements. Cash outflow will depend on outstanding shares; specifics aren’t included here.

The company also furnished results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 via Exhibit 99.1. Without performance figures in this excerpt, the market impact hinges on the detailed press release.
